I'm doing 30 things
I found a studio in the DC area that periodically offers letterpress classes and open studio time. I’ve taken an introductory class and a class on photopolymer (converting Illustrator designs for the press), and have loved it.

I walked a 5K today, trying to keep up a brisk pace. Hoping to train in earnest for National Race for the Cure in June.
The song that my fiance and I have chosen for our first dance is a foxtrot. We took an eight-week dance class a year ago that surveyed six different dances, and the foxtrot was the one dance that we just couldn’t get. (Or maybe it was just me. The rhythm, and how it’s a six-count rather than a four- or eight-count, kept throwing me off.) Time to take another class and hope something clicks this time!
